I've had cable failures on both my headphones and IEMs, and am thinking that beyond just fixing that, I'd like to try adding an inline cable remote — the kind of thing with three vol+/vol-/pause buttons that just fire a short/resistance across the mic line: I use both on the move a *lot*. Has anybody any experience of doing this, and any recommendations to make? Looking in the *huge* general DIY thread, my search-fu seemed to fail me.
Two approaches I'm contemplating are to buy parts, or to cannibalise somebody else's cable (e.g. a Sennheiser one). Only one of the sticky DIY suppliers seems relevant: Luna sell things like this, for example:

.. they look kindof cheap and tacky though, hence the thought of cannibalising something that might be of slightly higher quality.
Comments & suggestions welcome — particularly UK-specific ones (I see Toxic Cables used to be a good place to go, but now seems defunct).
